Who cares if he has respect, as long as he drives a Jetta? I mean 
come on, this whole thing is getting OUT OF HAND.

These are the facts:

1. Eric is not a racist.
2. His comments were not racist. They were insensitive towards 
Hondas, Honda drivers, and places that cater to them, but they were 
not racist.
3. While you are free to ask for it, Eric is under no obligation to 
provide anyone with respect, or consideration or to be politically 
correct. ESPECIALLY when his comments are being misconstrued as 
something they are not.

Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has them, most of them stink, 
and I won't mind if you keep your nose out of mine.

There's only one opinion that counts on THIS list. The VW VR6 Jetta 
GLX kicks ass. What else is there to say? If you have a problem with 
someone and their racist comments, take it to them directly, don't 
respond to the list. Even if Eric was an insensitive, offensive, 
moron, I don't care. Get over it. They guy drives a sweet Jetta. What 
else matters here, as long as he keeps his messages RELEVANT.


SPEAKING OF RELEVANT:

Does anyone else seem to have a problem with their trunk? I often 
have to slam my trunk quite hard to get it to shut. I read a TSB 
dated Mar. 23 (don't know the year) that talked about trunk screws. 
Beuller?
